Hello
What a fabulous afternoon celebrating the successes and achievements of our young people. This was during the annual Prize-Giving Ceremony, not only to GCSE and A Level Students, but equally to those students who have achieved great things despite difficulties, and others, who have gone out of their way to support those in need. A huge thanks to our Guest Speaker, past pupil Paul Tierney, currently working in London as a Chartered Architect and with his own firm, Tierney Architects. You could hear a pin drop when Paul began to tell his life story and the difficulties ahead. But with perseverance and determination, he graduated and can be proud of his success. Thank you Paul, for taking time out of your busy schedule to be with us today.
Congratulations to all who received Awards and to everyone who helped organise different aspects of the Ceremony. Of course, the Ceremony commenced with a lovely rendition from the Senior Music students under the guidance of Miss Mc Curry and Mr Mc Gartland. A breathtaking performance. Well done everyone!
Year 14 remain busy exploring future options with visits to University of Ulster, Magee and Coleraine.
Senior Football has returned for another season and we wish all the Teams the best of luck in the coming weeks as they embark on friendly fixtures and Championship games.
Congratulations to Fr Rocks Minor Team who won the League Final last Saturday. Many of our students play on this Team so it’s good to celebrate their success outside of school as well. A great achievement - Tyrone Group 1 League and Championship Winners 2024.
And hot off the press, Holy Trinity College is one of eleven schools across Europe who have won full rights to perform Disney’s ‘Frozen the West End Musical!’. What an accolade! We’ll update you on ticket sales and so on, in the coming weeks, so be prepared to be dazzled with another fantastic school performance in December.
Remember, Monday 23rd is a Staff Development Day. Pupils remain at home on this day and return to school on Tuesday 24th September.
Have a great weekend
Isabel Russell
